Did the movie shutter island have any PTSD related in it?

Answer 1

No non of it is real... At the time if you notice there was really no scary movies... So the producer knew he was goin to make big money. And plus its not even scary my 9 yr. old daugher watched and didnt think it was scary.

Answer 2

The location of the psychiatric hospital in the movie "Shutter Island" (2010) is not based on any real location. The movie is fiction, based on the 2003 novel by Dennis Lahane.

Shutter Island itself is not an actual place. Borderland State Park in Easton, Massachusetts was used for the cabin scene, Peddocks Island was used as a setting for the story's island, and East Point, in Nahant, Massachusetts for the lighthouse scenes. Scenes inside the hospital were filmed at the old Medfield State Hospital in Medfield, Massachusetts.

Answer 3

It depends what anyones definition of "scary" is. However, it is not scary. It is filled with mystery and suspense with an abundance of twists and turns. It would not be listed under Horror, but

1. suspense
2. mystery
3. drama

Answer 4

Initiall its about Leonardo DiCaprio playing a detective in the 1950's, who decides to investigate the suspicious death of a woman from the hospital on the island. But, there's a enormous twist and I wouldn't to spoil it for you. Watch it though, it is a fantastic film.

Answer 5

yes the film does as you see teddy has flashbacks of his time during the war, and the constant visits from his wife as the doctor (forgotten his name) quotes 'Baby why are you wet?' this triggers the memory of murdering his wife as they were by the river and small things like rain can trigger his memory as his children and wife were murdered by water. He also wears a façade to seem as though he is strong but as the film wears on we realise he is actually weak.

Answer 6

No, it is not based on a true story, actually it's based on a book by Dennis Lehane.

The book is based on a true story. So therefore, the movie is also.
